history

The school on the Hohen Ufer was completed in 1956 according to plans by the architect Geert Edgar Schlubach . The 1950s building was the only school building in the Lower Saxony state capital that was erected in the area of Hanover's old town in the post-war period .

By the 1990s, the school in the center of Hanover had developed into an institution with an above-average proportion of young people with a migration background , especially students with cultural family roots from Turkey , who grew up in two comparatively schizophrenic worlds of experience: “Germany in the morning, in the evening Turkey ... “was perceived more and more as a well-known saying of adolescents at the turn of the millennium.

After the school was closed in 2010, the city of Hanover decided in the following year 2011 under its then Lord Mayor Stephan Weil to renovate and then move the Volkshochschule Hannover (VHS) to the school building, which was vacant at the time. At the same time, the school yard, which was used as a parking lot, was to be “marketed” right next to the Historical Museum in order to enable building for residential and commercial purposes. The plans were implemented in the following years.
